Deborah and Patrick were at Sanderling celebrating their one year wedding anniversary, this was perfect for them! I met them in the lobby at 7am and we frolicked on the beach, by the sound, in the pool and even rode bikes! It was a blast!

Sassin’ at Sanctuary

by Brooke on June 17, 2013

This lady wanted something sexy and sassy, and treated herself to romp around the farm! I cannot believe she has an 18 year old! Holy Moly, she was smokin’ hot!

She was cracking us up with her obsession with Kenny Chesney! I’m sure if you send him a few of these images, he’s all yours!!

Carova Beach Portraits

by Brooke on June 17, 2013

Three generations getting together for fun family time in Carova!
Grandma and Grandpa had such a good time playing with their grandkids! We were expecting a bad storm rolling in and had to move fast, but it cooled off and made the beach bearable!

I love seeing all the different personalities!

I made it out of there just in time! Carova is all off road beach driving, and I had to stop to capture this gorgeous stormy sunset!

Sweet 16

by Brooke on June 17, 2013

We had so much fun with Francesca on the farm! She is 16 and loves to go to raves and dance! SO we tried to incorporate her personality into our shoot. We scheduled the shoot more towards the evening so we could play with lights and glow sticks!

We went deep into the bamboo in Candace’s yard to get these fun images of Francesca dancing. She played some of her favorite tunes on her phone!

Nags Head Beach Babes

by Brooke on June 16, 2013

We were so happy to be able to spend the morning with Bridgett on her 3rd birthday!
This family was visiting from Pittsburg. Mom and dad were familiar with the OBX, but the kids were not too fond of the ocean or sand!

They also made it to last weeks Acoustic Sunset at Sanctuary Vineyards in Jarvisburg. Thanks for coming to play with us! Hope to see you again!

Corolla Cuties!

by Brooke on June 12, 2013

We had a blast playing with this family from Ohio! They’ve been coming to the Outer Banks for years, but this was the first time for the grandkids. Declan and Davis loved the sand, but were unsure of the water.
Declan has the most beautiful red hair, just like his momma!

This shoot was a gift that Meredith and her brother bought their mom for Mother’s Day.

Mom and Dad have a Boston Terrier they rescued that was born completely deaf, but minds them just as much as any dog I’ve ever seen!

Thanks for spending your vacation time with us, and Happy Mother’s Day!

Father’s Day Family Shoot

by Brooke on June 12, 2013

Father’s Day is coming up and what better way to celebrate than a fun family shoot!
We’ve photographed Olivia, Hunter and sweet little Sifer many times here at BMP. This session involved her daddy, brother Aaron and his two children as well.

Olivia’s dad has a big wood working shop in his yard, so we did a few of him just being himself. He made sure to tell me that if these make it to Facebook, to mention that he’s single!
